Mitch here.<\/p>\n

As you read this, it’s 9AM.\u00a0 I’m cut off from the world, in a meeting.\u00a0 I’ll be 150 yards from my computer.\u00a0 And yet I might as well be at the bottom of a well, or in the Gobi Desert for all the good it does me.<\/p>\n

By now, most of you<\/em> probably know how the Heller <\/em>decision came out.<\/p>\n

But not me.\u00a0 I’m ignorant enough to be a friggin’ MNBlue<\/em> writer right about now.<\/p>\n

So I’ll be…:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Working my butt off to reach an early consensus on the design issues that led to this meeting<\/li>\n
  2. Racing back to the cube<\/li>\n
  3. Ignoring all watercooler conversation, avoiding my conservative co-workers, and eschewing all comments on this thread until I can read the SCOTUS wire.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    It’s gonna be news <\/em>to me, dammit.<\/p>\n

    (And yes, I’m actually writing this on Wednesday night, and setting it to publish at 9AM sharp, in case you were wondering why I’m writing this and not looking at the wire).<\/p>\n

    That is all.<\/p>\n

    The hell it is.<\/p>\n

    I wonder if the Minnesoros “Independent” <\/em>will even wait for the decision before they print some release from some astroturf group or another – “Sportsmen for Gun Control” or “Self-Defense Shooters for Handgun Bans”, or some other such potemkin front group for Citizens for a Supine <\/strike>“Safer” Minnesota, as if it were a credible, mass position on the issue?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
